Tailhook Daily Briefing Sequester Issues

Once again postings on these here parts have been rather anemic… I’d like to blame the sequester, but hell, who am I kidding? I’m a Life Member Tailhooker, civilian, working for a successful private company! The gummint takes away funds for sure from my operating budget but usually in the form of 1040 filings.

Therein lies the rub, getting promoted at the day job has really eaten into my other non- remunerative exploits. I’m going to see if I can change that a bit. (Not the day job part… the postings part!)

Step one has already been completed, like a property owner walking up to a barn on his long forgotten spread, there was some weed killing to be completed. Not visible to you, the four remaining readers of this blog, behind the scenes the Daily Briefing had been carpet bombed by comment spammers! I have subsequently deleted and banned the offending culprits. I cannot, for the life of me figure out why a spammer would even begin to think any Tailhooker needed a lifetime prescription to Viagra! Really? Know your audience!

Step three will be updating the banner at the top of this page, to reflect the current year.

I say step three, because step two will be publishing a post by TMurf about the upcoming Reunion in Reno! That’s next!

So, we’ll see if we can keep a good head of steam this time and keep her into the wind. I’ll launch articles as best as I can, but I could always use your thoughts and writings as well, don’t be shy!
